foam sprayers alert

[builthatch]

ok, so, these are on BOGO and i bought 3 (which was really 6)

out of the box, they suck. at least mine did.

however...

there seems to be a solution.

after spraying with it to see if it sucks or not, if it does then read on. take the long sprayer end off (unscrew) and CAREFULLY pop the assembly out that is underneath (clear piece/rubber ring/spring and plastic compression fitting). the spring assembly might fly out so work slowly. there you might notice plastic flashing on the white compression fitting that was in the spring. remove the flashing, then wash the sprayer out along with the long cap that you unscrewed. re-assemble and it should work as you thought it would from the beginning.

i was actually washing the one out that i tried to send them all back to AG, but after this discovery i'll keep 'em.

i have no idea if anyone cares about this, or if this is the right place to post, but i'll do it anyway.

and if it still sucks when you are done, take it apart again and rinse everything, because a few of them would still, somehow, produce little white plastic bits that would stick to the compression fitting.

i'm not a fan of these either, they have a long trigger stroke and i still have a few somewhere that i haven't bothered using...

I have a couple of those. I never use them though.
